Anyone using Mathematica would have the online documentation 'help' system. So far as I can tell, each command that uses an algorithm (partially) documented on that page has a link from the command documentation to that page. A regular user of Mathematica with some curiosity about algorithms will have been referred to that page many times by following links from help.
The documentation on that page generally consists of name-dropping of more-or-less state-of-the-art algorithms, with a few surprises. If you do not have Mathematica, but are Mathematica-curious, the whole manual and lots of other stuff is online. Not everything though, since the "Mathematica Journal" is either fee-based or partially fee-based or in transition to a free on-line back-issue, or something. There are some interesting articles there, and often pretty pictures.
